Some ice, blueberries or raspberries, one banana, some natural cocoa powder, a little honey, one Tbsp of peanut butter, one or one and a half scoops of protein powder, some non fat Greek yogurt (plain), and some water.

About the same... depending on what I've got at the house... I normally just throw in a mix of fruit (fresh or frozen), a few scoops of nonfat plain greek yogurt, some milk (preferably almond) and blend it. If I have Kale, I will put that in as well... not bad at all mixed with the fruit. If I don't have milk, or want something a little different, then I use whatever type of fruit juice I have. I've never felt that I needed to add anything for additional sweetness or protein... the nonfat greek yogurt seems have enough protein in it already.

I don't make them as often these days, but I still go through spells where I make them daily. I'm in the pro-fat camp, so I tend to include whole-milk yogurt, coconut milk, or peanut butter. I like most eligible fruit but prefer berries most of the time. Mint can be an interesting touch, as can Thai basil.

I've never made any of the green smoothies, but I've enjoyed some of the ones I've tried.

Of course it is a great source of protein, but dude it's that time again... BEACH MUSCLES!!!

Good stuff. Try throwing in some goji berries and maca root powder.
If you have a Vitamix or Blendtec here's a killer one:
Coconut water
Coconut cream
Little bit of sweetener
Almonds
Vanilla
pinch of salt.
Not one that will be a staple, but it tastes like a milk shake. Might go make one right now.

Just bought a ripe avocado tonight. Doing a simple Avo, Pear and Banana Smoothie in the morn. I'll throw in a few frozen blueberries for good measure, honey, yogurt and semi skimmed milk. Drink one and toss in a pinch of cinnamon with what's left in the blender.

I just made some garbage guacamole in the blender because I had half an avocado I didn't want to spoil... Didn't even consider putting it in a smoothie.

i like to do pineapple and coconut tastes like a pina calada so I use it for an adult like beverage that isnt unhealthy. I always add spinach to every smoothie I make. I will sometimes put banana, greek yogurt, strawberries and put my protein powder in it.
